The forums are very quiet

The Global FlyFisher forum has existed for almost as long as the site, and the oldest posts are more than 20 years old. Forums aren't what they used to be. Social media has taken over a lot of their roles, and the GFF forum is very quiet ... to put it mildly.
We keep everything online for the sake of history, and preserve the posts for as long as possible, but as you will see, quite a few of them aren't in a good shape, but rely on old images hosted elsewhere, which are no longer available, odd codes from old systems and much more, which can't be shown in a decent way.
But the posts are here, and you can - if you insist - start new threads and reply to old ones. But don't stay awake waiting for replies, because they are unfortunately few and far apart.

Hi everyone,

I'm new to sea trout fly fishing (I'm going to fish in Denmark) and after reading quite a lot on the subject I still have one question not answered - sea trout tackle. I know sounds odd - there is a lot info on which rod-reel-backing-line-leader to choose, but as soon as I enter a fly fishing shop, I have one big problem - which brand and model of rod-reel-backing-line-leader to choose.

It will much help if you post info on your own sea trout tackles (any comments are appreciated too). Then I can choose one, go in a shop and buy.

Looking forward to your posts.

Since you got this far …

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
